Singer Yvonne Elliman-Alexander, 65, and her husband Allen Alexander, 66, arrived on Guam on Tuesday to perform a benefit concert for Mount Carmel School.[1] Guam Customs and Quarantine Agency drug-detector dogs alerted to Yvonne Elliman-Alexander and Allen Alexander when they arrived on Guam on Tuesday for a benefit concert.[2] The two were arrested on arrival, and Elliman-Alexander and Alexander appeared in the Superior Court of Guam on Wednesday afternoon.[1]
Among husband Allen Alexander’s items, officers found 3.3 gross grams of a green leafy substance suspected to be marijuana.[1] Officers also found 3.5 gross grams of crystal-like rocks and a glass pipe with suspected methamphetamine residue in the singer’s belongings.[1] The leafy substance tested presumptive positive for marijuana, while the crystal-like substances tested presumptive positive for methamphetamines.[1] Elliman-Alexander was charged with one count of possession of a Schedule II controlled substance on board an aircraft arriving in Guam as a first-degree felony.[1] Alexander was charged with one count of possession of a Schedule II controlled substance as a third-degree felony.[1]
The prosecution asked that the pair be held on $10,000 cash bail as flight risks with no ties to Guam.[1] A magistrate judge instead released the pair on a $10,000 personal recognizance bond.[1] They were ordered not to leave Guam without court permission and surrendered their passports.[1] They were also ordered to stay away from all alcohol and illegal drugs.[1] They were required to check in with the probation office three times a week until the case was resolved.[1]
